First people there for the evening three us in the back corner by the bathroom with absolutely no space.I was up against the wall and my friend was sticking out having no table space. My friend had to move to the head of the table bc it was so tight and we aren’t even large individuals. Owner kept staring us down the whole evening. Mad the customer feel very uncomfortable. Told his waitress to tell us she has to move back when other table comes. Other table never came when we were there but still moved back. Portions are super small and overpriced. Wouldn’t return or recommend.

The salads we got with the grilled chicken were not good at all. One and done place and a little pricey for a small salad with chicken, will not return.

My main dish was zereshk polo. It was delicious. They have an outside area in the back that opens in warmer weather that is very nice.

Today my friends and I had dinner together. Our choice for dinner: Sauteed Eggplant, topped with crushed walnuts and caramelized onion with pita bread. Zereshk Polo and Zereshk Polo with tofu. I took a small piece of tofu to try and the taste pleasantly surprised me, it was delicious! My vegetarian friend also really liked it. Basil Special (a combination of Joojeh Barg) it was my choice, and It was very tasty! If you are very hungry, I recommend choosing this dish. We also ordered dessert, but only one for all, because we were full and there was almost no room for dessert. It was Apple Blossom with ice cream! Yummy! And one more small and pleasant detail that I liked is the simple and elegant tableware. I would recommend everyone go there and make reservations too.

If you’re fortunate, you might have Marcus as your server! The restaurant has a warm, cozy feel, and the service is impeccable. You may even have the chance to meet the chef/owner, who is truly a great person.

As a young woman, he attempted to convince me that he didn’t owe me anything because it was just 10 hours of work. He claimed that the Department of Labor wouldn’t get involved, but the truth is that they recognize the importance of compensating for every hour worked. Ray’s business practices come across as shady and untrustworthy. While I was there, many customers complained about the food being dry and not meeting expectations. The quality of the food seems to be inconsistent. I would advise against wasting your time at this restaurant.

The owner, Ari, stopped by our table and was incredibly friendly. We chatted about our families, different cuisines, and her love for cooking for others. Overall, it was one of the best dining experiences I've had, and I felt compelled to share my positive experience.

We began with two appetizers: the stuffed eggplant and pita bread for six. For my main course, I ordered the ceremonial chicken pilaf, and it was absolutely fantastic. They also have a charming outdoor seating area at the back, which is ideal for warm weather.

I've had my fair share of Persian food and this place does not disappoint. It was my first visit along with my girlfriend (an expert on Persian food. Small and intimate setting. Beautiful interior design. I do see future visits (interested in their pasta selection. If going for dinner, I do recommend calling ahead for reservations. Street parking only. BYOB. Friendly hostess and very helpful.
